Deep in the Joux Valley, surrounded by the snowy peaks of the Jura Mountains, the maisons of Jaeger-LeCoultre toil meticulously to create timepieces of the highest order. Garbed in white lab coats and equipped with the most intricate of tools – jewellers, craftsmen, and artists work tirelessly in the serene setting.

Now, thanks to a short documentary, we get a look behind the dial and see the master craftsmen at work. Old and new are juxtaposed on the outside and inside of the manufacture headquarters of JLC, as the maisons bring together the best of art and science to create everything from the classy Reverso, the elegant Rendez-vous and the near immortal ATMOS clocks.

Go ‘Beyond the Gesture’ and gain a new appreciation for the timepieces from this timeless Swiss watchmaker.
